So this is always one of those topics that comes up when it comes to owning hots. People always say "Its not if, but when." I personally dont believe that to be the case with proper handling. Taking your time, not getting comfortable, and not cutting corners. I think that always being cognizant of your actions around them, one can safely own hots without ever having that dreaded trip to the hospital.

Anyway, I thought it'd be interesting to run a poll of hot owners. Have you ever been bit? If so, please share about it. Was it something that you can recognize was a mistake on your part? Or was it unpreventable. If you have never been bit, how long have you owned hots for? I think this will be some interesting data to gather.
